Montaretto, for example

The village of Montaretto nestles in a pine forest on the cliffs of the Italian Riviera. At first sight, it seems to be a village like any other. But appearances are deceptive, because Montaretto enjoys a proud reputation as the last bastion of communism. For northern Italy's leftist scene, this little village has gained near-mythological status.

Montaretto brings to mind the "little Gallic village" from the famous comic strip, where people ignore the political edicts of the Roman government and live a life of cheerful and stubborn originality.

"Montaretto for example" questions the "Communism alla Montaretto" in a very witty and critical way.
